As we got closer I could see the red apples hiding in the green branches.There was a sign saying we could pick the fruits. It's free if you eat in the park. You leave some money in a box, if you take some with you.

Just Sitting

I didn't eat any. I just sat on the top of an apple and looked around.

I pointed out the good ones to Beth.

There was just the right amount of sunshine... and the apple smelled good.

The snow is following me. I had snow in California, then colored leaves in Nevada and now look at me in Utah!

Snow Monster

It looks like I'm sitting on the hands of a snow monster. This is the most snow I've seen in a long time!

A Real TreeI look like I'm sitting in one of those flocked Christmas trees from the 1950's! But the huge tree was real!The snow is the thing that was sort of not real.We were visiting the Sundance Resort in Utah (before ski season) and they happened to be making snow for the slopes. This tree seemed to be getting more snow than its share, so I had an adventure climbing on the snowy boughs.It would have been more of an adventure if Robert Redford would have strolled by, since he owns the place. Think he would have offered to pose with me?

Little Bear

My mom gave me this tiny bear over 20 years ago...because I like small things.

A few years ago, I usedhim in an assignment for a photo club and I got hooked. This little guy is a great excuse to play. He fits in my camera bag, so he's always at the ready for a photo shoot. He's been to a lot of places and he's had a few close calls. I'll try to share a few of his experiences!

UPDATE! I used to write this blog, but Little Bear has taken over the blog as of February 15, 2012! He says he no longer needs my help. Oh well.

ANOTHER UPDATE!Little Bear was lost in NY for a while, so I had to write his blog. Then he was found by a kind family who gave him a few adventures then sent him home to TX. After a short recovery, L.B. was able to take over his blog, once again!
